The role of the nose
The nose is located in the center of the face, which is the first channel for human breathing. It has two nostrils and some nose hairs with special functions. When people breathe, nose hair is like a loyal guard, which can purify the air, keep the dust out and reduce the damage to the lungs and trachea.
A special mucus is secreted in the nasal cavity, which can remove dust and bacteria that accidentally enter the nasal cavity. The nasal cavity also has the function of heating the inhaled cold air.
After all, the nose is fragile, and many people inadvertently hurt it without knowing it.
Nose hurts easily.
1, nosebleeds
Spleen governs blood and nosebleeds are caused by spleen not governing blood and qi and blood rushing up. Generally speaking, the symptoms of nose have a lot to do with the abnormality of lung and liver. When qi and blood rise, especially when lung qi is hot, people will have nosebleeds. When lung qi is overheated, people's eyes will also bleed with blood. The cause of epistaxis is the same as that of drinking, which is the result of ascending qi and blood, but it is not the cause of epistaxis.
2, rhinitis
Rhinitis is the most common nasal disease. If it is runny nose, it is easy to sneeze and stuffy nose, which is a problem of bladder meridian and kidney meridian. Treatment should start with expelling wind and cold, invigorating spleen and eliminating dampness. Tonifying lung and kidney; If the runny nose is thick and eating is tasteless, it is the problem of stomach meridian and gallbladder meridian. During the treatment, it is necessary to clear liver and purge fire, eliminate phlegm and turbidity, dredge intestines and benefit gallbladder.
The right medicine has always been the therapeutic concept followed in medicine. Nose problems, no matter how big or small, are a bit "a pity to abandon them and tasteless to eat." So how to protect our noses?
How to protect your nose
1, give your nose a bath
In the external environment, people inevitably have to endure dirty air, waste gas and annoying automobile exhaust. Often at the end of the day, these pollutants will leave a lot of dirt in the nasal cavity and gradually damage the health of the nasal mucosa.
Our brain is like the commander-in-chief of the body. It sends out signals and instructions to do everything. But in life, do you often feel that your memory is getting worse and worse, your brain's reaction ability is getting slower and slower, and you are always laughed at by people around you for being stupid? In fact, these are all manifestations of impaired brain health, and in life, people often have some habits that make you stupid.
What habits make people stupid?
1, no breakfast
Three meals a day is our basic dietary requirement, and breakfast is the most important meal in a day. Because after a night's sleep, the body consumes a lot of energy in the process of metabolism and the food in the stomach is digested, so it is urgent to eat breakfast to replenish energy for the body.
Many people have the habit of skipping breakfast just to sleep a little longer in the morning. In fact, this is very harmful. More importantly, skipping breakfast will damage the brain.
Get up in the morning, blood sugar is low. If you don't eat breakfast, there will be no digestible food in your stomach, which will not only damage your stomach, but also cause insufficient sugar supply in your body and hypoglycemia symptoms, and the nutritional supply of your brain will also be affected.
Therefore, people who skip breakfast will have symptoms of drowsiness and general fatigue in the morning, which is not only a manifestation of hypoglycemia, but also a manifestation of brain damage.
2. Love sweets
Sweet food is a kind of food that people like very much. Because sweetness is loved by people, and eating sweets can make people feel better, many people have the habit of eating sweets, and many people even carry some sweets with them. And in their view, eating sweets can supplement sugar for the body, prevent hypoglycemia symptoms and replenish energy for the brain.
Although sweets are delicious, from a health point of view, sweets are healthy for the brain. A killer, who often eats sweets, will definitely suffer brain damage.
Scientists research and analysis, if the body's sugar intake is too high, it will lead to a decline in insulin levels in the brain. Insulin not only controls the blood sugar level, but also regulates the function of brain cells, helping the synapses of brain cells to connect and communicate better, thus maintaining the memory level. However, if the insulin level drops, the function of brain cells will deteriorate, thus reducing the overall memory level.
3, often eat too much.
Although our living conditions are developing faster than before, each of us still enjoys a sense of fulfillment. As the saying goes, "It's hard to be full and strong, and it's hard to be hungry, so many people will be full when eating, and then touch their stomachs with satisfaction."
As the saying goes: "You can't eat too much when you are full, until you are old. Eating too much will not only cause indigestion, but also damage the stomach and brain.
So give your nose a bath more. Is there any good way? Of course, I suggest you take a cold bath with your nose, especially when you wash your face in the morning. You can wash your nose several times with cold water, which can improve the blood circulation of nasal mucosa, enhance your nose's adaptability to weather changes, and prevent colds and various respiratory diseases.
2, intranasal massage
Massage your nose does have many benefits. Put the thumb and forefinger into the left and right nasal cavities respectively, clamp the cartilage of the nasal septum and gently pull it down several times.
This method can not only increase the disease resistance of nasal mucosa, prevent colds and rhinitis, but also moisturize the nasal cavity and keep the mucosa normal. In autumn and winter, it can also reduce the stimulation of cold air to the lungs, reduce the occurrence of cough and other diseases, and enhance cold tolerance. Stretching the cartilage of nasal septum is also beneficial to the prevention and treatment of atrophic rhinitis.
3. External nasal massage
Hold both sides of the nasal root with thumb and forefinger, and pull 10 ~ 15 times from top to bottom. Pulling the nose can promote the blood circulation of nasal mucosa, which is beneficial to the normal secretion of nasal mucus.
"Xiang Ying point massage.
Xiang Ying acupoint is located in the depression of nasolabial groove beside the alar, where there are branches of facial nerve and infraorbital artery and vein, and it is the intersection of facial nerve and infraorbital nerve. Pressing Xiang Ying point with forefinger and middle finger can effectively improve local blood circulation, prevent nasal diseases and prevent facial paralysis.
"Tang Yin ordered a massage.
Press Tang Yin point alternately on the left and right sides of your index finger. The method can enhance the proliferation ability of nasal mucosa epithelial cells, stimulate olfactory cells, increase olfactory sensitivity, and prevent respiratory diseases.
Some people hate nose hair for beauty! But I remind you, never pluck your nose hair. Some obsessive-compulsive women feel that nose hair is disgusting, so they pick up tweezers and pull them out, but they don't know that this will also damage the function of the nose.
In fact, nose hair is an essential screening organ for human body. Without it, it's like exposing all your respiratory systems to a dangerous environment. Dust, particles and various bacteria will directly enter the trachea from the nasal cavity, which will inevitably affect the health of the lungs.
Conclusion: The nose is located in the center of human face, so it also plays an important role in showing people's charm. Of course, its importance to the body is self-evident. Protecting our noses is a top priority! Today, I will introduce some nose signals, the "enemy" of the nose and how to protect it. I hope it helps you.
